(WO)

OPINION
The

sole

claim

now

remaining

in

this

case

is

plaintiff Marilyn Belton’s charge that defendant LaLanya
Almesha

Ramsey

retaliated

against

her

for

filing

a

discrimination charge, in violation of 42 U.S.C. § 1981,
as enforced through 42 U.S.C. § 1983. This lawsuit is now
before the court on the recommendation of the United
States Magistrate Judge that summary judgment be entered
in favor of Ramsey and against Belton.

Also before the

court are Belton’s objections to the recommendation.
After an independent and de novo review of the record,
the

court

concludes

that

the

objections

should

be

overruled

and

the

magistrate

judge’s

recommendation

adopted.
An appropriate judgment will be entered.
DONE, this the 15th day of November, 2012.

/s/ Myron H. Thompson
UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
